Forza Motorsport 4 shows the making of its Hockenheim track

Being a video game designer sounds like fun. And when the video game you're designing involves recreating famous racetracks from around the world, you're definitely having more fun than the average cubicle-dweller.

The developers at Turn 10 Studios have to do exactly that for the upcoming Forza 4 video game. It's an interesting process, and Turn 10 has released a video showing us how it's done. It highlights the nearly three-mile-long Hockenheim circuit in Germany, which features 13 turns and plays host to both the German Grand Prix and DTM events.

We won't spoil the track-creation magic for you. Instead, click past the jump and let Turn 10 demonstrate how it happens.

Will be interesting to see if it can compare to iRacing. None of the previous versions did; nor was GT5. I'm sure it will be a fun game, but they've got their work cut out for them to even get in the ballpark of iRacing.
